That thing is awesome. Question though, why the huge gap between the engine and grill shell?

Sorry, i didnt see this post. There is a bigger gap cause the air bags and lift arms are hiding between the radiator and motor. These are some old pics but you can see them.

Well, its a sad day. The car probably left the comfort of my climate controled garage for the last time. my dad came and picked it up so he can load thenrest of the trailer for the portland swap meet. I really dont want to sell it, but with our family growing i need to finish my crew cab cummims build. I build another. I actully spied a 4 door essex in my neighbors back yard today. He mowed some weeds haha.

It's always a sad day when they go away, the hot rods and the kids. My willys was driven away and i videoed it for posterity.
As you said there's always another waiting in the wings. [cl

Thanks soltz, i get to spend the weekend with it .hahaha. hopefully it sells. Cause if i bring it home with new tires on it, i wont let it go again!

 

[lowbudget50]

Well it came home with me, has new tire on it so why not work on it more lol. I decided to build a top for it. Something that comes out fairly eaisy. 3/8 rod and 8 1/4-20 bolts are a good start.

I re did my gas tank straps. Should hage done this from the get go. Bought 2 old belts from goid will. I attached them so the buckles were visable and attached a bungy cord to the other end. Ii did the bungy so i could ensure a good tight hold on it. That was the problem with the old straps, they couldnt get tight enough. These look way better.

Built my flame throwers today. Not impressed by useing the choke to fuel them. I will be changing my fuel sorce. But they do light off pretty good.
